XONA PULSAR™
Introducing Xona Pulsar™, the first ever independent precision LEO PNT service designed to meet the needs of intelligent systems.
WHAT IS PRECISION LEO PNT?
Legacy GNSS such as GPS and Galileo provide position, navigation and timing (PNT) services from a constellation of very large satellites ~12,500 miles from Earth. These services have become the backbone of nearly every aspect of the modern connected world, however threats to these legacy systems are increasing rapidly alongside consumer demands for enhanced performance and security.
​
Xona’s Pulsar precision LEO PNT service leverages the recent advances in small satellite technology to provide users with a secure and robust alternative to GNSS from satellites ~25x closer to Earth. By combining Xona’s patent pending system architecture with the efficiency of small satellites, the Pulsar service can provide an affordable global service with more than 10x better accuracy than GNSS.
